metal detecting

[MM]

i know you might not belive it, but there is a lady who comes through my station most days, and on a nice day like today, she usualy has a metal detector in her rucksack.

 

If she is "coming" through your station it isnt a metal detector it is a rampant rabbit....

 

 

:look: just dont plug her in, whatever you do. :look:

OK suckers, this is going to sound contrived but what the hell

 

this evening the Mrs and daughter came come complaining that on their horse ride they had been encumbered by some low hanging branches up the bridleway and could i go and sort it

 

so off i jolly well trot, cos that's the kinda guy i am, armed with bow saw, long handled secateurs and never one to miss a trick took the detector aswell

 

sorted the path then squeezed in a bit of sweeping and found this

 

 

think it is gold and possibly Roman, may be worth a monkey

 

so ppppfffffffttttttttt to all you knockers, especially the one who spends far too much time in his greenhouse growing chilli plants :look: :look:

National minimum wage is £5.52, take off the cost of your equipment and batteries etc. and if you have been doing it for more than about 50 hours then you need to find two of them suckers to break even.

 

Besides, I just checked my plants and one has sprouted platinum encrusted diamonds, so poke that in your detector and smoke it.

 

No, they are not chilli plants, my greenhouse is full of ganja and that's green gold round these here parts.....

Ahem, Mr Mungler

 

every Sunday for two years at between £40-£100 a pop

 

Total prize money = ?:lol:?

 

my math aint great but i now have a hobby that puts something back in the pot which is a first :look: :look:

 

i have been a googling and found my coin, it is Iron Age and could be up to 2K, will seek advice in the morning

 

Oh yes

[Mungler]

There were those two fiftysomething sandal wearers in Suffolk / Essex border that found a king's ransom - a couple of million quids worth.

 

I heard that with the extra money they had purchased new metal detecting equipment, a limited edition of "Risk" the board game and had increased their monthly housekeeping to their mums :look:

im no expert but if it was iron age......wouldn't it be made of iron?

[Mungler]

<giggles>

[tosspot]

I would hope that the working of a soft malleable metal such as gold, would pre-date the Iron Age considerably

[Chard]

I found a fossilised pig **** once :look:

 

(not with a metal detector) :look:

[MM]

got lots of great british roman stuff, bought though, not found by me.

[Ice]

Oh my lord, I have just seen this thread.

 

I am lost for words.

 

No hang on, a couple are making their way out....

 

'Sad' and '*******'.

 

Lads, sometimes sharing is not good.

 

If I was out metal detecting at the weekend and someone said to me "hey what did you do at the weekend?" I would rather say that I was busy signing the sex offenders register than confess to metal detecting.

 

 

ROTFLMFAO

 

That brightened up my day!! :look: :look: :lol:

[Mungler]

TP any update?

 

Did you get the Bud cap formally appraised?

[tosspot]

Coin bloke i went to see was out buying, but was reliably informed the coin is Celtic and from a Sussex tribe. The weight of the coin is short of being solid gold and is probably gold coated bronze this could mean the difference of hundreds of £s. Still a good condition find that may have layed lost for 2000 yrs. Shall return tomorrow for a valuation, but i think the Krieghoff may have to go back on hold.

[Mungler]

So it's a Celtic Bud cap then.

 

Well, I bet it was a talking point at ..............<sssssssssssssssnkEFSmg.fvbb\bsv\ds\hxjhtfzghzx............

 

Sorry, I just nodded off onto the keyboard for a moment there

TP,

 

If you want I will post you down the contents of our recycling bin every week. (as it is, we use our neighbours for overflow)

 

You wont have to spend valuable shooting time wandering the countryside like a gaylord and I am sure our glass bottles and aluminium cans will weigh in much more profit for you...hic, hic...

i decided id give this metal detecting lark a go today, to see what its all about. i found something much older than your bronze age coin.

 

Take a look.

 

 

i got a mate of mine to take a look at it and apparently its from the ICE AGE. but apperantly its very unstable and depreciates rapidly. an not worth much

Has anybody else noticed on one brand of bottled water (volvic maybe? or is that a car?) the advert says "filtered through volcanic rock for thousands of years", yet on the the label it says "consume by 01-07-2008?
